Well hello again
sports fans and welcome to another edition of Kurtz Kommentary

Well I must say I was wrong about the Bucs, they are not paper champions. They
showed the true heart of a champion. No one gave them a chance and they came
through. They showed how they are true champions by going into to the place that
no said they could win at, in the cold and getting down 7-0 less than one minute
into the game.

What does this win mean ? As a person who was born and raised in Tampa it means
more than anything that can be measured. I sat there for so many of the 14
double digit losing seasons . I used to say wow a 8-8 or 7-9 year would be
enough. Then they turned the corner finally and became one the NFLís elite but
still no Super Bowl appearance. I used to say to myself would this ever happen
or ask otherís whose teams had gone to the big game how it felt to just
imagine my life long dream of seeing this team reach the pinnacle of the NFL. As
Barber ran down the field to ice the game with that 92 yard TD interception my
eyes filled with tears as my dream was coming to life in front of me. The years
of frustration of being called a fan of the worst franchise in sports history.
People laughed at me, told me give up, and root for a team that wins. I said
never the Bucs are in my blood from Buco Bruce (The Winking pirate on the old
helmets) to the time being out numbered by visitor fans in our own stadium.

This is the greatest moment in Tampa Bay sports history. This town lives and
breathes Bucs football. Tampa Bay Fans smile now and enjoy the week. I am going
to borrow a line from the former head ball coach at UF. "They can call me
arrogant, they can call me cocky, but one thing you canít call me is a
loser." Tampa you are no longer a loser. Celebrate and now get behind this
team for Sunday. This Sunday will be our night this town has the feel to it now
and so does this team. GO BUCS!!
